At the recent Intel Student Science Fair, Raymond Wang, 17, of Canada took home the top prize and was awarded $75,000 for engineering a new air inlet system for airplane cabins to improve air quality and curb disease transmission.

The year 2015 marks the 4th year that the Garry Rogers Motorsport (GRM) team has enjoyed the advantages of using the Pointwise computational fluid dynamics (CFD) dedicated meshing software to produce detailed, high fidelity meshes for the design and improvement of our Volvo Polestar S60 V8 supercars.

The 2014 results speak for themselves with five race wins, ten pole positions (equaling the highest for the year) and our driver Scott McLaughlin’s qualifying average of 3.8, the highest of any driver in the series.

The Vincent Lab in the Department of Aeronautics at Imperial College London announces Release 1.0 of PyFR CFD software, an open-source Python based framework for solving advection-diffusion type problems using the Flux Reconstruction (FR) approach.

As an open-source project, growing vibrant user and developer communities is a crucial goal for the SU2 team, and we continue to pour our energy into delivering the best possible tools. Thanks to the hard work of our development team and the support and encouragement of thousands of users around the world, SU2 is now the preferred open-source alternative for CFD analysis and design in compressible flows. At this time, we are excited to announce the official release of SU2 version 4.0 "Cardinal."
